ATLANTA (AP) — A Democratic former legislative leader said Tuesday that he’s raising money for a possible run for attorney general.

Bob Trammell of Luthersville said he’s exploring whether he should run in 2026 to be Georgia’s chief lawyer.

“Like many Georgians, I’m deeply concerned about protecting our future — for our families, our livelihoods and our rights,” Trammell said in a statement. “Establishing an exploratory committee for attorney general is an essential step in considering the right path forward to protect all Georgians.”
